The Belarusians Are Coming.
1. The Republic of Belarus is situated in the center of Europe at the intersection of routes that lead from the West to the East and from the North to the South. The shortest way from Europe to Russia and other CIS[*] countries crosses through Belarus. With a population of 10 million people, the country has an area of 207 thousand square kilometers. A third of the Belarus’ territory is covered with forests. About 2 million people live in the country’s capital, the city of Minsk.
2. Belarus is one of the most economically developed countries in the CIS with a stable growth of GDP[†]. National industry manufactures a wide variety of technologically-complex products.
3. 30% of the world’s production of heavy load trucks and 8 % of all tractors assembled in the world come from Belarus. The timber and the woodworking industries are well developed, so are the light and the food industries. Since Belarus and some CIS countries have formed a customs union, goods that were made in Belarus can be exported to Russia, without any duties. Many foreign firms (there are 4000 firms with foreign capital in Belarus) produce goods in Belarus and sell them on the big markets of CIS countries.
4. 67 % of the GDP accounts for the export of goods and services. This fact reflects the high degree of openness of the Belarusian economy. For comparison, this index for the U. S. is 12%.

The Economic System
1. There are many forms of economic order, ranging from the mixed private enterprise system to partially or completely controlled economies. Regardless of their form, economic system is the system that a society uses for allocation and distribution of scarce resources. Private enterprise means that decisions about what and how much to produce are left to the discretion of owners and managers. In controlled economies such decisions are the responsibility of some governmental agency. There is no economy today that is completely free of governmental influence. There are many beneficial services and protections available from government. Irrespective of the form of economic order, it performs certain valuable functions in the life of organizations of all types.
2. Among the functions of the economic order the most important one is to provide some means of resource allocation. In a private enterprise this function is basically performed by the price mechanism. This simply means that demand for and supply of goods and services interact to set their market price. In the case of regulated utilities, there are governmental agencies such as public service commissions that determine the rates that may be charged by utility companies. These rates are set at the level that will allow a fair return on investments made by the companies. This form of regulated monopoly is considered, on balance, preferable to unchecked competition. This is true because of efficiency reasons. In taking actions in the area of employment, government is attempting to control the economy to help the business community operate at the level of production that will yield full employment.

World Bank’s Action on Inflation
1. The World Bank highlighted that Russia must control inflation and allow for appreciation of the ruble if it wishes to see its robust economic performance stay on course. Recent curbs imposed on staple goods would do little to reverse inflation and could lead to price distortions. The surge in capital inflows not being absorbed by the Stabilization Fund is driving money expansion and exerting upward pressure on the ruble. The strong ruble has in its turn been driving up labor costs. It is suggested that wages will be growing more rapidly than productivity.
2. GDP growth has been dented by appreciation of the ruble, making exports more expensive abroad and imports less expensive to domestic consumers. Any economic policy decision involves a tradeoff, and the missing link between inflation and export competitiveness of Russia’s industrial growth is high productivity. Another challenge highlighted by the World Bank was the shrinking and rapidly aging 2025, the population will drop by 12 percent, and one in five people will be aged over 65. The situation in Russia is of particular concern because of the twin factors of a low birth-rate and high mortality.
3. Salary increases in the country don’t meet up with the requirements of aging population because there is a big gap between the wages of young specialists and those who toiled their way to retirement. However Russia earned praise for maintaining an economic policy that allowed the country to weather the global liquidity and credit crunch crises. Besides Russia’s capital inflow into the economy has increased considerably.
